I worked with my legislator and many others in Texas to block the Trans Texas Corridor, and am working now to insure that people in churches where I am involved here know what Perry was up to and counsel them that if socialists of that ilk own both parties than conservatives have no voice.
Perry didn't just fall to the back of the pack behind even nut burger Wrong Paul because of bad luck. He deserves to be run out of politics and those of us who fought him on the TTC have been working for half a decade towards that end.
You vote for whatever crony La Raza Pandering Land grabbing big government candidate that matches your values.
Do not, however, expect people who have known who Perry is and opposed him all these years to buy his sudden conservative makeover, any more than people from NYC bought Giuliani's attempted conservative makeover in 2008.
I had trepidation about the TTC as well but eminent domain for roads is hardly socialism.
I fact that is one of the things the founders said it was for.
Kelo Vs New London was nothing of the kind.
You now 35 is woefully inadequate for Texas.
